Calling Gobbler's Soft/Aggressive

[Dtrkyman]

Aggressive calling doesn't have to be loud!

Much of the time I call at a lower volume, it is amazing what they can hear.

I told my cousin, a new turkey hunter to call at a volume you think he might hear, not one you know he hears!

This is a really good point.  I suspect there are a good number of turkey hunters that think you can't be the aggressive without being loud.  They are not one and the same...

I "soft talked" several birds last year, low volume and virtually constant calling!

Years ago I had two toms coming across a large field, if I stopped calling they lost interest, I was about out of breath when I finally killed one, I think of that hunt often when calling those birds that are slow to come in.

Like anything it works when it works!

A good friend who I guide with and who also builds all my mouth calls calls really softly volume wise, I noticed this when we were playing with calls in his shop years ago and added it to the arsenal, he is a killer!

I may be stubborn but I ain't stupid...haha

A wise old turkey hunter, years ago, told me

"Less is best & soft is super."

Very wise advice...

I well remember Kenny Morgan running a barely audible series of calling at his house one day.  He got that knowing grin on his face and said "veriest call".  He wasn't kidding.
